Second Booster Dose: Do people still need a second booster dose? Now the government itself has given information


Posted on 3rd Jan 2023 03:22 pm by rohit kumar

Because of the rapid spread of Corona in many countries of the world including China, the Government of India has also become cautious. The government is continuously issuing guidelines for its prevention. Apart from this, the Health Minister is also holding frequent meetings with his officials. In this meeting, everything from corona testing, quarantine facility, and vaccination to arrangements for hospitals are being discussed. At the same time, in the midst of all this, the government has given big information. The government has said that at present people do not need another booster dose. First, we need to apply its first dose to every citizen. According to the government report, the first shot of the booster has been administered to only 28 percent of the population, which is a matter of concern. The central government seems to be making all efforts to speed up the booster drive.

 

There was a discussion among the technical group about the second booster dose.

According to media reports, discussions were going on among the members of the technical group about the second booster dose as some people were feeling the dire need for it. An expert on one of the committees of the National Technical Advisory Group on Immunization, or NTAGI, said on condition of anonymity. They will scrutinize all the scientific data before making any recommendations.

 

The immunity gained from the vaccine shot wears off in four to six months.

Studies have shown that the immunity gained from the vaccine shot usually wears off in four to six months. This study suggests that a fourth shot helps ward off severe disease, although experts are now recommending bivalent shots as a fourth booster.

 

Some doctors called for a fourth dose

Some doctors have urged introducing the fourth dose, at least for those at high risks such as healthcare workers, the elderly, and those with comorbidities. Representatives of the Indian Medical Association, at a meeting on 26 December, asked Union Health Minister Mansukh Mandaviya to allow additional doses. Explain that the third dose for health care and frontline workers was given about a year ago.

 

Association's former president Dr. JA Jayalal said that we have urged the health minister to consider a fourth precautionary dose for people, especially doctors, nurses, other hospital staff, and frontline workers, who are considered to be at high risk. Patients have to be managed.
